While login to windows with local administrator and install xendesktop with 
AD administrator account, it's successful, below is what i have done:

$adPassword= convertto-securestring "password" -asplaintext -force
$adCredObject = new-object -typename System.Management.Automation.PSCredential 
-argumentlist "ad.mydomain.com\user",$adPassword
$CurrentProcess = Start-Process -FilePath ".\xendesktop\x64\XenDesktop 
Setup\XenDesktopServerSetup.exe" -Credential $adCredObject -Wait -PassThru 
-ArgumentList "/COMPONENTS 
CONTROLLER,DESKTOPSTUDIO,DESKTOPDIRECTOR,LICENSESERVER,STOREFRONT /NOREBOOT 
/CONFIGURE_FIREWALL"

But while use puppet automation script(it run with windows system user) to 
execute install xendesktop with AD administrator account, it's failed, 
below is what i have done to run 'exec' in puppet(same code as above):

$adPassword= convertto-securestring "password" -asplaintext -force
$adCredObject = new-object -typename System.Management.Automation.PSCredential 
-argumentlist "ad.mydomain.com\user",$adPassword
$CurrentProcess = Start-Process -FilePath ".\xendesktop\x64\XenDesktop 
Setup\XenDesktopServerSetup.exe" -Credential $adCredObject -Wait -PassThru 
-ArgumentList "/COMPONENTS 
CONTROLLER,DESKTOPSTUDIO,DESKTOPDIRECTOR,LICENSESERVER,STOREFRONT /NOREBOOT 
/CONFIGURE_FIREWALL"

So the only difference is the succeed one run the above script with local 
administerator and failed one run with windows system user.The failure 
message display in the event log is like():

An account failed to log on.

This event is generated when a logon request fails. It is generated on the 
computer where access was attempted.

The Subject fields indicate the account on the local system which requested the 
logon. This is most commonly a service such as the Server service, or a local 
process such as Winlogon.exe or Services.exe.

The Logon Type field indicates the kind of logon that was requested. The most 
common types are 2 (interactive) and 3 (network).

The Process Information fields indicate which account and process on the system 
requested the logon.

The Network Information fields indicate where a remote logon request 
originated. Workstation name is not always available and may be left blank in 
some cases.

The authentication information fields provide detailed information about this 
specific logon request.
    - Transited services indicate which intermediate services have participated 
in this logon request.
    - Package name indicates which sub-protocol was used among the NTLM 
protocols.
    - Key length indicates the length of the generated session key. This will 
be 0 if no session key was requested.

I have tried to use runasspc also to execute this installation, and add the 
system user to local administrator group but I got same result. Any help 
would be appreciated.
